This Washington State team al ways seems to get hotter and hot ter as a game progresses. The Cougars fell behind early in both games of the late lamented play off, but in the second half of each they went on scoring sprees. Ivar Nelson, Bill Dahlke, the Carlsons, and the sophomore subs were dangerous throughout the re gular season, hut in this playoff they hit an unbeatable stride. If they can keep up the pace this week-end, the big final series for the coast tiara will be no soft Stanford mates. * * ?! Evidently the Webfoots weren’t hitting anything in that second half up at Pullman. Probably they were forced to cast off when crowded and from way out.

Hobby Hobson and the boys will be home in Eugene at noon today and that ought to mean a mass meeting of students at the train, just as if the Webfoots were con quering heror/s.

That was more than the most hopeful optimist could have rightfully ex pected from the group of sopho mores and reserves who answered Hobson’s call at the season’s out set.

A field goal by Johnson and a free toss by Nelson for Washing ton State and Laddie Gale's free throw' for Oregon made it 16 to 15 for the Cougars at half-time. The second period was a night mare for the Webfoots. Nelson, who consistently took the tip-off, pushed in a pair of field baskets before the Oregon hoopsters could find their bearings. Dahlke and Sewell Carlson swung into scoring action and, with Nelson, boosted the Cougar score up. up, and up. It was 27 to 15 with eight minutes gone, before Lewis scored Oregon's first point of the half with a free throw. Purdy Breaks Ice Dahlke and Nelson went wild again and it was 33 to 19 before Ken Purdy, with 11 minutes gone, connected for Oregon's first field goal of the half.
